Hello everybody!

Yesterday, my best friend and I broke up. I love him very much. How can we go back to being best friends if we both love each other?

(he broke up with me because be didn't have time to spend with me and I deserved better.)

Thank you in advance!

Thank you. I really really appreicate it.

We are absolutely PERFECT together. I can't imagine any guy ever being as great as him, but I do deserve better treatment. He didn't have time for me, and that's not fair to me.

Can we be friends even when we have these feelings for each other? Cause whenever I think about it I cry (which is really weird for me--I DONT cry) mostly because I know that I love him and he loves me, but he's choosing to seperate us anyway.

Thanks

hands_down317 agony auntI'm not going to say that, don't worry. Everyone's different and no one can tell you that you are or aren't in love. I think that you guys have a great chance of getting back to normal. And if you guys love eachother, maybe just give it some time, later down the road it will work out better. Do you truely believe that you deserve something better? If you think he's the one for you then he's probably just got low self-esteem which can be worked on.

Thanks, Kate. Since were only teenagers, we didn't think it was appropriate to go any farther than kissing. Not to say we weren't physical in doing so, though, hahaha!

I've had many people say that I don't really love him, I'm too young at 15 for that. Please don't say that--I'm the one who has to live it.

Thank you!

hands_down317 agony auntyou may or may not be able to get things back to the way they were. How physical were you?

I dated my best friend, twice actually but he was just too much like a brother so i could have a physical relationship with him, but we are still closer then ever.

I would act like normal but accept that things happened the way they happened, give it time and you can joke about it. I think it depends on how physical you guys were and I don't know that, could you clarify and I might be able to give you better advice?

Take care
